Overview

Robinson is big receiver who became Arizona State's go-to option during his senior year after being in and out of the lineup for three years. He is an average athlete who doesn?t display much mobility. He is effective catching the ball in short spaces and uses his frame well to get short catch production. He doesn't have the speed to be a deep threat. Robinson is a guy who has been productive in a conference full of good receivers, and has value as a late-round selection to see if his size can be utilized at the next level.

Analysis

Strengths

Robinson is a good traffic player who catches a ton of balls in close quarters and for short first downs. He likes to box out much like a basketball player and use his long limbs to pluck the ball out of the air. He is also effective in the run game as he likes to get physical and block cornerbacks downfield. He is an effort player who brings a physical presence.

Weaknesses

Robinson is nonexistent as a deep threat, and despite his size struggles to get off the line of scrimmage. He worked out of the slot at ASU, which is uncommon for a player of his size. It will be tough for him to be more productive in the slot than most NFL players currently starting, so he will have to learn how to get past his inability to release off the line, and figure out how to be productive in the intermediate to deep passing game.
